Well there is also the danger factor involved also.
When there was the community house of ill repute, men knew who they were seeing, they knew what to expect, and everyone got on with their day.
Finding an escort on a website, calling her up, and meeting her at her place or yours is very scary, especially the first few times. After that you kind of get used to what to expect, and the ladies send out a reputation to others, as many of them know one another now.
Its not just the money. 150 to 200 bucks is usually what you can expect to pay an hour for most escorts. Higher end, 400 or more. But most escorts are around 150, to 200 dollars. Most middle class men can afford that once a month.
So if we take out the danger factor(diseases too) the ratio of men willing to see prostitutes go up even higher.
I still consider 200 bucks too much to pay. But I am frugal though.
Paying for sex is easier than getting a girlfriend. I have personally never paid for sex but if given the opportunity, I'd rather pay for sex than try to get a girlfriend. Trying to get a gf is way too much work.

scary to see a hooker....maybe if you are trolling around on the South SIde of Chicago picking up street walkers....but if you are scared of an escort that shows up at your door who you called you are a weeine--with all due respect.
I thought it was funny (in a morbid sort of way) that in Switzerland prostitutes are being trained to use defibrillators due to the high number of elderly clients.
I know we get posters from around the world here, but most are US-based. So I will quote the info for the US. But you can look at any of the countries and such. It's interesting to read about the cultural difference and attitude towards paid sex.
Quote:
"While earlier studies with methodological limitations have found 69% (Kinsey et al., 1948) to 80% (Benjamin and Masters, 1964) of American men to have engaged in commercial sex, more recent studies with representative sampling have found much lower - but still substantial - rates in the range of 15% to 20%...
While men who solicit prostitution are not atypical demographically or in terms of criminal history, they are unsurprisingly and measurably different in terms of a range of attitudes toward women, relationships, and commercial sex... [C]onsumers were less likely to be happily married than men in national samples, to have sexually liberal attitudes (e.g., to view premarital sex, sex among minors, and homosexuality as acceptable), and to think about sex more often. Commercial sex participants were also less likely to have been sexually molested as children, or to report having forced women into sexual acts. The differences between samples were not large, but were statistically significant."

Well gosh guys I didn't know we were such a nuisance lol
I don't want to go through 30 rejections just to find one woman who will date me. Too much work and not worth the effort. I'll pay for sex before I approach multiple women.
Same here. Neither gender understands fully what the other gender deals with. Grass is always greener.
Ain't that the truth. A while back I joked that at least when a man has a sexual dry spell, he's got options and a pretty good choice of women to choose from (paid sex). Try being a sexually frustrated woman with only married or otherwise attached to someone male friends (they always say "go to a male friend and he will sleep with you" Like we all have a bunch of horny, single, male friends out there who are secretly attracted to us or something).
